When In Rome lyrics

Artist  : Nickel Creek 
Song : When In Rome
 
Where can a sick man go

When he can't choke down the medicine the old doc
knows

A specialist came to town, but he stays at
home

Sayin', "No one knows, so I don't"

Honey, when in Rome



Where can a teacher go

Wherever she thinks people need the things she
knows

Hey, those books you gave us look good on the
shelves at home

And they'll burn one in the fireplace

Teacher, when in Rome



Grab a blanket, sister

We'll make smoke signals

Bring us some new blood

It feels like we're alone



Grab a blanket, brother

So we don't catch cold

From one another

I wonder if we're stuck in Rome



Where can a dead man go

The question with an answer only dead men
know

But I'm going to bet they never really feel at
home

If they spent a lifetime learning

How to live in Rome
